Finally! The tsunami victims are safe!
5k run for tsunami victims! They raised an amazing $700! That's enough to buy dinner for a UN stooge! Finally, the lives that have been destroyed will be restored.
The top three males and three females received a one-month paid membership to 24 Hour Fitness in addition to other gift certificates that were donated by local businesses in the community.
Wouldn't it make more sense to give those memberships to the bottom three males and females? Sounds like the ones at the top are fit enough as is.
But some students said that they did not know about the prizes and participated in the run because it was a good chance to get some exercise and help the relief effort at the same time.
"I probably would have done it no matter what the cause was," said freshman Brittany English. "I wanted to see if I could pull it off in a race situation."
Uh... so, when you say "some students said this" and then proceed to quote a student, it doesn't help when that student doesn't say "this." It sounds like English just wanted the competition. In a charity run.
